I've been using my dumb phone for a while now, and I know that it's not about the smart features that help me cut back on screen time. It's about the screen size. No matter how smart your phone is, you'll still cut back on screen time if you use a small screen.

You will cut down on screen time if you stop using your phone like an NPC and focus on your obligations.

Randomly stumbled upon your video and immediately went to buy one for myself. Even though I have a Razr plus I wanted something more rugged for work and this definitely fits the bill. On top of that, my mate who was also watching at the time went ahead and bought one for his dad as a Christmas present. Legendary stuff!

I actually have this phone. There are two things I really don't like about it: my hands are pretty small and I constantly have to reposition my hand when using the numpad, and I dont like that I can't easily open and close it with one hand. I've loved everything else about it.

Should be noted that it's not full-blown Android, but actually Android Go
oh man when I was a kid I remember grabbing the adult's phones and just playing with the mechanical moving parts, either flipphones or the sliding ones, cause mine wasn't neither a flipphone nor a slide phone, it was in fact pretty similar to modern phones but with Java ME instead of Android

this is a phone i glad i have that i never knew i needed. its perfect for a user trying to break that addiction to social media hence the small screen. its like watching yt on it for example. it works but is very inconvenient and undesired.

been using it for about 2 months and ive actually gotten used to using my pc now rather than letting it waste away. very good phone, i have all my usual apps from my sual smartphone on there but i dont go to the cat all the time (if im on the go ill check it now and then say every 2-3 hours if im expecting a important update) usually though it just stays in my belt case and its fine
I used to play GBA pokemon on a Nokia C3, it was a good fit for the game as I could use the keyboard from the phone!

yes, you can use the keyboard from the phone. Also: nds emulation with drastic emulator is fast and good
This thing is damn powerfull. And durable too. Damn.
Just wait til you discover the S22's big brother, the Cat S62! Use the thermal imager to find the coldest beer in a refrigerator, a clog in the pipes, or leaks in insulation around your house! And the phone is big and heavy enough to be used as a melee weapon. (Although not advisable)

Not exactly. It does not have the RAM to handle Honkai Impact 3 without crashing, (I know because I used to play HI3 on a 2-3GB device), so its not much of a gaming device these days. But the form factor's great considering I do like smart flips and am bummed I don't see more beyond foldable screens and the old StrTrek.

It’s not a Dumb phone , it still tracks All your data and Eveything and knows your location and can spy on you like any iPhone or Android phone , it’s just a Smartphone with Small screen and a Button keypad for construction workers so they don’t break there iPhones
That phone would be perfect for hold school stuff like GBA, SNES, and the older stuff if you can rebind the buttons.

Yay he’s back!
whenever I can't use my fingernails I just use the charge cord itself to open the cover
when I first buyed this phone from Philippines🇵🇭 (Amazon Philippines) my honest review to this phone is good and has a sleek design, I currently use it for gaming, I will give this phone a 1000/10
I'd actually use this since all I do on my phone is call/text, a little social media like discord, and music
aaah the flip sounds so amusing~ :'D I want onee
I got this last week and I was able to download all the apps I need but the bottom is too heavy for my hand. I love that it has android and it’s flip but i am a girl and it’s heavy 😞. I wish there were more options with flip phone factor

These phones should not be underestimated, there are brands like Xiaomi that make similar phones, and they are for work, even more so the CAT, and they are also useful for areas where as soon as they see you with a smartphone they steal it, I say this because I have an acquaintance who I bought it for that and it helped xdddd
Great vid and we are birthday twins (fun fact: May 18 is also Haitian flag day). Have a beautiful week!
I have a phone that also has a port seal like yours, I use the charging cable connector to pry it open, try it
Can you get life 360 and online banking?
I swear you can call in a killstreak with that
The workaround is actually you can plug in a Bluetooth hopefully if it has Bluetooth
Have you thought about playing it with a type c controller like a backbone or a kishie?
That was amazing even one of my android can't play pubg😂😂😂
Interesting video.
Did you turn on native refresh rate in Pokémon Go? You can't really use it as a benchmark for anything unless you've done that.

Can this phone be used to do deliveries for like door dash, uber eats, Walmart Spark?
just saw this video and now i want to buy one as my backup phone in January 2024
Imagine chatting with the bois on a Discord voice call with this.
I like the ideas you install free fire videos😊
I have one … but temple run works good … 👍

Less size and less price??? But great performance??? What wizardry is this???
I want this just to mess with my friends and parents
had to leave my review. I bought the Cat s22 flip. such a nice phone. Ok, first the cons: -mediocre battery at best (but same as a normal smartphone, need to recharge after a day of heavy use) -top of the phone when open kind of has this sharp edge, hurts your hand a bit when holding for long periods -screen size means that when you get notifications on screen while using an app, its really annoying and stops your use of the app -a bit slow -bad for reading bad review right? WRONG. its the best dumb phone ever. people say its big and heavy, but to me its great. very solid but NOT heavy at all. love the general way its tough, never worry about a drop again. The phone serves its purposely for me so well. My iPad 6 is only wifi, so i need something to get calls and use web on the street, but want to cut down screen time and compulsive phone swiping. this does it so well. it's a JOY to use for 20 minutes, but use it for an house and its very annoying. perfect. Love the layout, keys feel GREAT. I use the touch screen keyboard, which is annoyingly small, but is ok. I read some to say get the T9 old keyboard app or something but its just like another 1-9 phone dial like old nokias, I don't want to type like that. Android go 11 is GREAT. I can literally use all the apps I need, but the phone doesn't promote meaningless use. perfect middle ground. I need to wire some money, DONE and can do effectively and easily, but not TOO easy that i'm on my phone looking at IG reels for 3 hours straight. Cannot recommend this phone enough for someone looking to break their screen addiction.
